The soldier

     He  is  sitting  down  beside  her  pregnant  wife discussing  about  the  birth  of  the  baby.Phone  rings  and  duty  calls.Goodbyes  are  said


  and  now  he  is  off  to  another  country  far  away  from  home.
     While  patrolling  the  war  stricken  country  he  just  hope  war  would  be  over.He  needs  to  go  back  home  and  be  with  his  wife  during  her  labor  pains.Sirens  sound  and   gunshots  heard.War  is  not  over.Bullets  everywhere,childrens  cry  everywhere and  people  running  for  their  lives.
     Meanwhile  she  is  in  labor .Delivery  room  is  busy.Doctors  and  nurses  are  busy.Push  and  a  little push  more.It's  a  boy.Tears  with  joy  as  she  hugged  her  and  say, you  look  like  your  father.
     More  gunshots  and  missiles fired.Buildings  going  down.Smoke  all  over  the  place  .When at last   shout of  joy is  heard.The  battle  is  won.Time  to  go  home  his  comrade  say  as  he  hug  him.He  smiled  and  handed  his pregnants  wife  picture and  whispered  ,hug  my  baby  for  me.His  last  words  as  he  close  his  eyes  .
